On Dec. 12, the official Mercedes Benz Stadium Twitter account posted a “Spongebob Squarepants” GIF, obviously referencing the “Sweet Victory” episode. The GIF was posted without caption or context — perhaps implying the petition’s dream could potentially become a reality this February. It’s clear that stadium officials have gotten wind of the viral request to honor Hillenburg. As of Sunday, Dec. 16, the tweet has nearly 30,000 retweets and 86,000 likes.
